Kenya Airways has been recognised as the leading airline in Africa for 2021, snatching the award from Ethiopian Airlines

gallivant:


When we see open defecation posters on Kenyan roads we will know we have reached a critical point. Otherwise it's too disgusting of a topic to discuss. You can use the energy and time to post development.

was thinking of the same

Mkenya2019:
Why are Ghanaian urban dwellers openly defecating - worst on beaches. In Kenya it's mostly in remote semi arid wilderness. In Ghana it's urban areas - which is why you have had serious Cholera problem.

actually i have issue with ths called African urbanization..What kind of urbanization where folks poo on streets...better stay in the village

Land reclamation is the way forward in Lagos. Lagos has limited land.

even though I don't really like the new development. But one thing u should know is that Nigeria is not kenya. These are private sector projects, and any private organization can build anything, anytime and anywhere provided the terms and conditions are met with d govt.

There's nothing like finish this, before starting this here cos it's not a govt entity.

By the way, eko Atlantic, like every other cities around the world can't be "finished" or have u finished building Nairobi?

UAE is like the country, Dubai is a city in UAE. UAE has lands in respect to their population, why is Dubai reclaiming lands?

awful because of the design.

ahh yes kenya also got private sector projects just like Nigeria anyway was asking about ths coz UAE got lot of cash to spend..seeing naija spend lot on reclaiming land whle country got free space doesnt make sense

u think it's the UAE govt that's building those new cities? In case u don't know, it's their private sectors that's building most of what u see there except public infrastructures.

If the private sectors want to spend where they feel they can recoup the money, why should u bother?

whether it private or govt funded you get my point..UAE got cash an lot of cash..Nigeria is an african country trying to make it...So i thought that cash can be used to fund more useful stuff (development)

mtisQ:

explain..

This is not the only land reclamation project going on in Lagos,there are so many,it’s just that EAc is the most publicized.

Lagos is divided into two:
; mainland and island. The latter is mostly purported to be for the rich,that is not to say they aren’t fancy neighborhoods on the mainland . Lagos a city of 20m has limited land spaces and has to start thinking of the future
Most developers wouldn’t want to move to the mainland plus in my opinion land space on the mainland is almost consumed. Now on the the island. Vi,ikoyi,lekki is gradually choking developers have the choice of going north of Lagos(Epe axis and the likes) that has vast expanse of land stretching all the way to ogun state but then again it’s very far from the typical Lagos,almost as if you are traveling out of Lagos to a very remote neighboring village so they are down to reclaiming land to accommodate more taller vertical structures or being patient enough to wait for dangote mega projects in epe axis to spur economic changes that can attract people to the other remote part of Lagos. Already alaro city has done that (their projects literally shares boundaries with dangote refineries and fertilizer plant) and recently a new city called “Isimi Lagos” .Already I think the redline metro train that is nearing completion is stretching all the way to that axis,connecting Epe(dubbed as new Lagos ) to old Lagos. Also the lekki regional road that is ongoing would connect that place to the $2bn 4th mainland bridge U/C ( purported to be the longest bridge in Africa) . All this is to open up that place for easy transit of people and businesses. Once dangote free trade zone is completed ,alongside lekki deep seaport this will employ people that would need places to reside as the distance from old Lagos would be too far to transit everyday. They way you attract businesses as well as people and that where Alaro and isimi Lagos comes in to absorb this demand in a strategically planned community.

The old part of Lagos would need to keep reclaiming to meet up demand of top global business district and that where eko Atlantic,ocean city,illubirin ,IIBC(international imperial business city) and the likes comes in. They need land reclamation for this and that why their projects are strategically built around already existing rich neighborhoods like CI,ikoyi,lekki and the likes.

UAE is like the country, Dubai is a city in UAE. UAE has lands in respect to their population, why is Dubai reclaiming lands?

Land reclamation is also a sign of luxury. Talk of palm Jumeraih in Dubai and others in Singapore,China,Doha e.t.c

mtisQ:

that's ur own perception. I can't deal with it for u.

U guys always shout that Nigeria has oil and u don't see what they're building with oil money, now u see what they're building with it, u're still complaining about it.

Is ur stupidity not stupid?

theenchanter:
awful because of the design.

I actually like the design. But what do t you like about it?
It’s quite similar to iibc from aerial view

samorobo:

the project is actually part of eko Atlantic divided into 2. Eko Atlantic only reclaimed about 60% of their plan and focused on vertical development while ocean city will reclaim the remaining portion of the original plan and build according to their own design.

But they claim to have struck a deal with d govt over this since 2003 sha...... Wo, na them sabi jare.

mtisQ:

UAE development is pegged to the world not their oil money. It’s a global developers playground cos it’s offer enticing incentives like zero taxes owning to the fact that it is one big free trade zone. So yeah it’s a win-win for the developers.

In fact let me shock you,some of those tall scrapes you see in Dubai are funded by big real estate companies in Nigeria. Nigerian projects are all over Dubai. Who doesn’t live free things. I would I want to invest in Nigeria with unstable economy and still pay wicked taxes when I can go build more in Dubai and enjoy so many free incentives that comes along with it. You get my point now.

So basically you are saying ocean city is still owned by the chagoury group or are the chargoury grip working with ocean city to de eko that axis.

And what do you mean by build according to their own design?

samorobo:


He his always going to be my little playthings to ease off daily stress. His agony is my happiness

Tell your brother the truth. you are on the qui vive, every time my presence is displayed. The kind of intellectual torture I've rendered into you is something that you would never wish for your brothers. Stress relief should not be in my timeline, focus on your mental health and know peace.

samorobo:


I just check and this are the tenders I am seeing.

At the current state it will take 500 years to complete. Most of the high Rises have been sold out but they are not even completed for three years now

I also forgot to add free land (in Dubai)

no, ocean city isn't owned by d chaugoury group. The chaugoury group couldn't reclaim all the lands for eko Atlantic, so a new investor came in to reclaim the unreclaimed part and build his own city specification.

samorobo:

Forget about these renders. They are deceiving tools. Focus on reality on the ground. .. Don't cry.

What is qui vive? Do you mean quiver?
Pls write properly olodo hoodrat.


And yes you are my little plaything. I derived pleasure from manipulate you and subjecting you to my wicked antics. You just like one classmate of mine in high school whom I constantly bullied and he kept coming just to act strong but deep down he was dying inside and always complained to people how he hated coming to school to face my verbal bullying. He was lucky to have switch school the following section else he would have lasted to w en graduate out of junior school with us. Dude was considering suicide. I dealt the hell with him.

Shma:

He told you the designs are awful. He's speaking his mind, dude!

he has his own mind too..... If the design is epic to him, so be it.

My opinion can't be used to judge d project.
